Jean Jacques Rousseau once wrote
"man is born free but everywhere he is bound in chains"
my sensitive natured chained me to what people thought of me and how society perceived me
my dignity chained me to doing whats best for others and not myself so that i felt like a good person
my integrity chained me to morals and always questioning right and wrong
my pride chained me to feelings of accomplishment
these are all the things that don’t matter
if you stripped away my life
take away the house i live in
the people i grew up with
the comfortable things that make life fun
my luxuries
my friends
my pride
my sensitivity and caring what other people
what are you left with?
your left with what truly matters
if you take away your favorite TV shows, your weekend plans with friends, what your parents think of you, what your friends think about you, what people think about you, you left with freedom
all that matters
if you take away everything
and look at my soul, just my soul, you’d see truth
its louder then words
and its greater then anything, indescribable..
"Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains. One man thinks himself the master of others, but remains more of a slave than they."
all that matters, what truly matters, is what you love and how much you go for it, when you give up everything, your free to decide life for yourself..
I’m free..
theres different kinds of love
theres love of kinship, the unconditional love that makes you love your family no matter how horrible they are and no matter who they are, just because they’re family
theres love in camaraderie, the love you have for your friends and comrades, the love that lets you open your heart to the people around you and give yourself away to them selflessly, love amongst brothers and sisters and peers in life, whom you’d give yourself up for
then theres true love, the love you find and keep for one person you meet in your life, this love is stronger and more powerful then anything else, and with this love you can accept the passing and coming of your family and friends, because this one love is enough to sustain you.
people these days live chained very much, chained to pop culture and TV and what the "rules of life and love" are
chained to friends and what they think and how they feel
chained to the rules of society and whats they consider to be right or wrong.
chained to parents that you cant even think for yourself sometimes
so chained that it distorts perception
if you grew up by yourself with no one teaching you, no tradition or rules made you to follow, no expectations, you can just be yourself, and determine things yourself, and be who you are, and not have any interference with that, people don’t really have that anymore, and its sad...
a lot of people just want too to enjoy the shallowness of of life and experiences that come with it
it all doesn’t matter, what you have to focus on is life is short, all the famous geniuses
they all accomplish and feel the most when they’re young
cause you never know how long your gonna live
you have to take now to its fullest
right now, if i were to live long
is just moments that i would look back and smile at
but it could all be over tomorrow
and id be laying there thinking about all that truly matters.. and i know what truly matters
Each of us places his person and authority under the supreme direction of the general will, and the group receives each individual as an indivisible part of the whole...
What people dont realize is, that we’re all really the same..
I’m human
I’m the same as you
and everyone else
nothing more
humanity is plagued by perception and desires, greed and vanity
the wanting to have something more, to be something more, to accomplish more
there is nothing more
we’re all born the same to die all the same
as human beings
as equals
I’m the same as everyone else.
just open your eyes.
